[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you want to know why kindergarten seems so rigorous now when it didn't before, here it is. UMC white people redshirt their perfectly normal and average kids, which skews the norms and expectations. So now you have old ass kids in kindergarten-and they are usually all white and affluent. Minorities and BIPOC don't do this, usually because they can't afford another year of preschool. So, who gets the short end of the stick again? You guessed it. If everyone just sent their kids to school on time, school would be more developmentally appropriate. As it is, there are 13 year olds in my 6th graders class. My child is 11. Let my kid tell it, the 13 year olds are the smartest. My 8 year old was telling me about a boy turning 10 in her class in March-shes in 3rd grade. They aren't smart they are just OLD.
